Following more than a dozen other universities, students at the University of Texas at Austin have begun protesting and attempting to set up encampments on campus in support of Gaza during the Israel-Hamas war.

The university said the protest was not authorized, sending a letter to the Palestine Solidarity Committee, who planned the protest. The letter said those who participate can expect disciplinary actions, including suspension under the university’s rules.
